The book outlines the concept of the Automated City, in the context
of smart city research and development. While there have been many
other perspectives on the smart city such as the participatory city
and the data-centric city, this book focuses on automation for the
smart city based on current and emerging technologies such as the
Internet of Things, Artificial Intelligence and Robotics. The book
attempts to provide a balanced view, outlining the promises and
potential of the Automated City as well as the perils and
challenges of widespread automation in the city. The book
discusses, at some depth, automated vehicles, urban robots and
urban drones as emerging technologies that will automate many
aspects of city life and operation, drawing on current work and
research literature. The book also considers broader perspectives
of the future city, in the context of automation in the smart city,
including aspirational visions of cities, transportation, new
business models, and socio-technological challenges, from urban
edge computing, ethics of the Automated City and smart devices, to
large scale cooperating autonomous systems in the city.
